    阅读以下英文,完成下列题。
    Community service means doing volunteer jobs for the public. It teaches valuable lessons about the duties of a citizen. Today, in the United States, important services are provided through thousands of organisations created to meet needs not provided by the government at the local, state, or national levels. These activities help to create a sense of great care for the public.
    There are close connections between community service programs and civic (公民的) education in schools. At every level of school, students can participate in community service projects. In the primary grades, one of the purposes for students is to learn basic civic values that include fair play, respect for the opinions of others, and the rights and duties of a citizen in our society. By taking part in community service programs, very young children can learn how to solve problems, work in groups as leaders or group members, and accept the duties of their decisions and actions. Besides, children develop knowledge of their community----its leaders, organisations, social groups, and standards of civic behaviour.
    Community service programs can provide the chances for students to learn social study skills. These include higher-level processes and skills of information collecting, critical thinking, and decision making. Community service programs also teach processes and skills for group discussions, leadership and teamwork. Through community service programs, children can learn how people play roles in a discussion to work out the local problems. Students can volunteer to teach young children in child care centers or help in senior citizen centers.
